42-lesson sight singing series“S-Cubed
Successful Sight Singing Program for Middle School Beginners”. S-Cubed is as
much philosophy as it is method.S-Cubed
has helped many teachers in their classrooms because it not only meets
beginning readers where most of them are when they arrive in our classroom in
regards to their reading ability, but it also helps the overall “fun factor” in
your classroom.In 10-15 minutes per
day, your singers will become fluent, competent readers with S-Cubed, and there
won’t be any moaning when you do the sight singing portion of your lesson!With this sampling of the early lessons of
S-Cubed Middle School Sight Singing Program for Beginners, you will have a
great start to your S-Cubed journey if you decide to continue with lessons 4-27
in the original series after giving S-Cubed a try in this starter pack.

How will this Starter Pack impact my teaching?

teaching

middle school children.

*It will help you create a nurturing, structured environment
with your

middle school children.

*It will help you establish daily routines during the first
10-15

minutes of class and beyond.

non-auditioned public school environment in three states who come from a variety of economic and social
backgrounds.

I'm so glad I found your blog! I am returning to teaching after a 13 year break and am looking for a music teaching position. I did teach middle school choir before I took a break and it was tough being a new teacher with no idea where to begin. I'm looking forward to using your techniques and advice in my future classroom.
